Soumi,
The process is quite simple. You either have to send the passport to the nearest Consulate General of India or just go there in person. They would ask you to fill out a miscellanous form (can be downloaded from the web site) and submit both your passport's. I think the fee is $10 for each applicant. You also have to send them copy of marriage certificate. You should call your nearest CGI and find out their requirements. I got it done from CGI Houston in a day. If your marriage certificate is issued by US Govt then you to notrize the copy and a letter requesting them for endorsement. Also it is better to endorse in both your passport's with each other's name. If you look thru this thread luxgc has also posted a detailed description.
